This Woven Kingdom by Tahereh Mafi

4.0

---

The first half-ish was soooo incredibly slow, but not necessarily in a bad way. It kept me interested and I felt pretty immersed in the book, especially the more I read. After that halfway point, it for sure picked up the pace, not in the actual story, but more so the unfolding of the events. I've heard the series gets even better throughout the books, so if I enjoyed this one so much, I can't wait to read the next ones. I absolutely loved the way Tahereh Mafi wrote this. Her word choices really help with immersion. And I love when a fantasy book is written in 3rd person. This series may even be put in my big 3.
